This drill press came up for sale near me, $450. Ad says it's heavy duty, was on a navy ship, and "might need a little work". I've been looking for a drill press for my garage, what am I looking at here? (Only pic offered, and that's all that was in the description. )

I remember when these things were everywhere-- the cheap sets had plastic ones (I remember them usually being blue for some reason), and higher level sets had metal ones, but I only ever saw cheap aluminum ones, so I must never have seen tool truck versions. I also remember them being in a...

I'm looking for a set of extra deep 3/8 chrome sockets. Usually I can find individuals as well as sets when it comes to regular, deep, semi deep, and stubby, but I'm having a hard time finding anything other than CTI sets, and no singles other than spark plug sockets. There does look to be one...

Same size, both =v= series, why is one noticeably 'sleeker' than the other?

I'm not a pro, just home and personal vehicle repair. Thanks to GJ, I've learned I'm missing something good by not having a long/ extra long handle flex-head ratchet. I plan to grab a good model, either SnapOn, Koken, or something similar, but I'm just trying to decide which size drive...

I want to mount a belt driven, old cast iron double arbor to my shop wall, with the electric motor that runs it mounted to the wall directly under it. Can I mount the motor on a flat base/board, and then mount the base to the wall using a hinge or hinges at the top edge of the motor base...

I'm going through all my tools to move them to my new garage, and I found this level that I must have gotten from my father in law at some point. No clue how old it is, I assumed 60's Era. My question is, why double vials? I can't find a rhyme or reason for this, at least the way this one...

I'd like to be able to hold something the size of a screwdriver handle or hammer head in my drill press and tool sharpener. Is there some kind of adapter that can fit in my chuck that can hold larger diameter things?

First, I think the '1000' is how much this thing weighs! I swear the base must be made of lead--it's not even solid! The left half of the base is a reservoir to capture cutting oil as it drips, and the right half is empty. Paid $100, but honestly I thought the chuck spun as well as the grinding...

In the process of building a garage, and the floor was poured last week. The floor in these pics is completely dry. Contractor warned me that it will be slippery.

Saw this searching eBay, advertised as a "vintage Roberts ratchet P100a Ohio USA". Internet searches, and searches here turn up nothing. It looks like some type of flex ratchet with a spinner handle attached. I figured for $25, I'm interested to see what it is.

I picked up a couple palm ratchets recently, a Walden Star ratchet (what a solid, hefty piece of metal!) and a Palm-Grip ratchet with two screwdrivers, each with a 3/8" drive hole in the base of the grip. As you will see, my flat head has seen better days. I've searched, but have come up short...

Although I love SK, I don't want a 'round' palm ratchet. I don't know whether I want to spend more on the black handled snap on version, or grab an old Palm-Grip brand. My concern with the snap on is whether the plastic(?) handle will hold up to abuse, And my concern with the Palm-Grip is...
